English term or phrase: grazing
In this context, the Applicant has realised that, also due to the poor reflectivity of the black elastomeric compound, it is appropriate to have a very high optical energy density on the surface and, also, as much as possible concentrated around the surface portion to be acquired (typically a linear surface portion) in order to prevent undesired scattering of light from the surrounding surface portions, which worsens the contrast of the acquired image.
Moreover, the lighting must be sufficiently homogeneous on all the linear portion to be acquired to prevent over- and/or under-exposure.
All is complicated by the fact that the light incident on the linear surface portion to detect the above defects is preferably grazing.
